Washington has received a $1 million SAMHSA grant to support the Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) model, a crucial step toward a stronger behavioral health system. SOUND is proud to help lead this initiative in King County. As the 2025 Legislative Session continues, we are actively advocating to protect behavioral health funding and have secured key legislative sponsorships to support our programs. Amid ongoing challenges, we remain committed to our mission: Improving lives by providing equitable, recovery-focused behavioral health care for all.
